WEST HARTFORD, CT - - May 9, 2017 -
ZipPark, Inc., the industry leader in event and valet parking
technology, today announced that it has appointed Carl Sgamboti,
co-founder, as Chief Executive Officer effective January 1, 2017. Barry
Lazowski, co-founder, will continue on as President.

“Carl is going to take ZipPark to the next level,” said Lazowski. “His
unwavering dedication to the company, deep experience in designing
world-class systems, and commitment to unparalleled customer service
makes this a perfect fit for ZipPark.”

Prior to co-founding ZipPark in 2001, Mr. Sgamboti served as Vice
President of a software development firm where he led teams in creating
systems for accounting, medical research, manufacturing, and parking.
While developing manufacturing execution systems in the 1980’s, it
became clear to Mr. Sgamboti that PC’s were no match for the dusty, hot,
and humid shop floor environment. This is where he first leveraged a
fledgling technology, industrial-strength mobile computing, to automate
business processes. His experience would serve ZipPark well in the early
days of the new company and throughout its evolution. Later he was
trained in interaction design at Cooper, the company founded by Mr. Alan
Cooper, known as the “Father of Visual Basic”. Mr. Sgamboti then went
on to serve as Director of Interaction Design for startups in oncology
research. “Effective software design is an important success factor in
my and ZipPark’s success,” said Sgamboti. Within the parking industry,
Mr. Sgamboti has been an invited speaker at industry conferences,
participated in panel discussions, and published articles for major
parking magazines.

“ I am thrilled to be given this opportunity to grow ZipPark to its
fullest potential,” said Sgamboti. “Over the past several years, we
focused on retooling and modernizing our platforms and cutting costs to
yield the greatest value for our customers.” He continued, “There is
still a large market that has yet to discover what many world-class
properties and professional sports teams already know…that ZipPark can
make a big difference in their operations, tightening revenue control
and expanding customer conveniences with technologies like EMV and NFC
payments, texting services, integration with PARCs, and real-time pass
validation.”
